Not for me 😯

I heard myself utter these words yesterday! "No thanks 🀣 I've got a run in the morning"

Who is this person 🀣

Well I'm glad I didn't.. went out and got my fastest 5K to date πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Brilliant I will run Saturday, I think your longer runs are Sunday's if I remember rightly x I'm not going for any pace, just going to go as slow as I need to ensure I get to my 10K and without any problems..

So good luck on yours and looking forward to seeing how we go πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

How many 5Ks have you ran? I graduated in November and I've probably ran 20, so just take your time and it will come naturally x don't want any injuries πŸ€—

SueAppleRunGraduate1060minGraduateβ€’ in reply tosparky66
